Answer:

A. $2.00

B. $26.99

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5 x 49.99 = 24.995

49.99 - 24.995 = 24.995

0.08 x 24.995 = 1.9996 and round to the nearest hundredth

24.995 + 1.9996 = 26.9946

round to the nearest hundredth

Part b: 26.9946

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1:

Find the unit rate (1% of 49.99). You should get 0.4999. Then, multiply 0.4999 by 50. You should get 24.995.

STEP 2:

Find the unit rate of 24.995. You should get 0.24995. Then multiply 0.24995 by 8. <u>You should get 1.9996 (answer for part a).</u>

<u />

STEP 3:

Add 1.9996 to 24.995. <u>You should get 26.9946 (answer to part b).</u>

PLEASE HELP DUE TOMORROW 1. An artist is selling children’s crafts. Necklaces cost 2.25 each and bracelets cost 1.50 per each. a
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost per bracelet = 1.50

Cost per necklace = 2.25

Let :

number of necklace = n

Number of bracelet = b

Cost equation C ;

C = 1.5b + 2.25n

Number of necklace that could be sold for exactly $12

5 necklaces and 1 bracelet :

1.5 + 2.25(5) = 12.75

•2 necklaces and 5 bracelets:

1.5(5) + 2.25(2) = 12

• 3 necklaces and 3 bracelets

1.5(3) + 2.25(3) = 11.25

• 4 necklaces and 2 bracelets

1.5(2) + 2.25(4) = 12

• 3 necklaces and 5 bracelets

1.5(5) + 2.25(3) = 14.25

• 6 necklaces and no bracelets •

1.5(0) + 2.25(6) = 13.5

No necklaces and 8 bracelets

1.5(8) + 2.25(0) = 12

Amount charged per Tshirt = c

Setup fee = $40

Number of students in drama club = 21

Total cost of order = $187

Calculate C ;

Total order cost = set up fee + (cost per shirt * number of shirts)

Total order cost = 40 + 21c

187 = 40 + 21c

187 - 40 = 21c

147 = 21c

c = 147 / 21

C = 7

Hence cost per shirt = $7

Hi! I would like help on this, I’m a first-timer on brainly! The answer choices are:
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

No matter what value you multiply a, the fraction will remain unchanged. That is because you can divide an a out from the numerator and the denominator. Thus, doubling a has no affect on the fraction, and in fact, u can simplify it to just bc. Now, if you halve b, it will simply just halve the actual value. When you halve b, you are simply executing (1/2)(b)(c). Therefore, you can rearrange the expression to be (1/2)(bc), which is just halving bc. If you decrease by 1/2, it's the same thing as being half of the value it was before. Therefore, the answer is b.
